Caroline Cavanagh jumps from 15,000 feet to confront her anxiety about skydiving. Her son's last words before the jump:
Chapters
Good afternoon, Caroline.
Hiya.
How are you feeling today?
Getting a little bit nervous now.
A little bit nervous now that you've got the jumpsuit and the harness on?
Yeah, we are all ready to go. Oh, and you're just about to board the plane.
So what's the reason you're jumping with us today?
To overcome an anxiety.
Facing your fears, so to speak.
Yeah, face my fears, because I know when I do, I'll be in 20 minutes' time or so, I'll feel very different.
Definitely will, I can promise you that one. Okay, and how high are you going? 15,000. So nothing held back, going straight to the top.
I'm gonna face it, I was stupid enough to ask my Facebook friends whether I should do 10 or 15, and guess what happened?
15. Awesome stuff. Well, I'm sure you're gonna love it, Caroline, and we'll see how you feel when you come back down. You've got your 2 supporters here, so they'll be chanting you along.
The last thing my son said before I left home was, please don't die. So that's encouraging.
Yeah. Okay, well, we'll see how you feel when you come back down the other side then, Caroline. Have a great jump. Okay.
Oh, fantastic! You gotta do it, you gotta do it! Best feeling ever. Congratulations. Welcome back. Thank you so much. Oh, that was brilliant. Anything you're anxious about—
What do you think about skydiving now?
Oh, it's brilliant. You've got to do it. And anything you're anxious about, just bloody face it and get on with it because it's so good when you, when you face it and get through it.
Caroline, you did really well. Congratulations.
Thank you very much. See you next time.
See you soon.
Bye-bye. Hi, thanks very much.
